Reply To: The Grand Listening Project
A sad thing I’ve discovered already is that some of my CD-Rs have lost it since the last time I played them. I tried listening to my CD-R of WAGON TRAIN yesterday, for example, and it has that famous “digital flutter” towards the latter half of the disc.
That’s aweful! While I haven’t ripped all my original CDs yet the first thing I did was doing all the CD-Rs. Interesstingly the first CD-R i ever burnt worked great. There were some brands that basically all failed. And what really killed most is if you put labels on them…
You could try to rip it as computer drives are often more “forgiving” (= better error correction) than normal CD players have. Maybe you will be able to at least save the most of it.
Is that this Stanley Wilson album? That is at least on Youtube as a fallback:
